Does anyone have any experience coding an Ertl procedure/stump revision? I'm looking at CPT 27886. In the explanation it states the physicial surgically cuts the tib/fib individually to complete the re-amputation. My doctor says he would be "trimming the tib/fib about one-quarter inch" so is that enough to justify this code? And he is planning on tying the nerves as well which is also in the description.......help!
